Did you know that being active is one of the best things you can do for your health? It can improve your general well-being and mental wellness, not to mention it can combat fatigue, aches and pains, anxiety and depression.
So why not pledge to MOVE for men’s health this Movember? Commit to anything that gets you moving a little more than usual, from walking to work each day to taking a yoga class to participating in a 10k run. As long as your Mo is moving, you are headed in the right direction and taking positive steps towards improving your health.
MOVE can also be a commitment to make small actions all month long, like getting off the bus a stop early to and from work, walking your dog around the park a few more times, or taking the stairs instead of the lift every day. Whatever the scale, get your blood pumping and start moving – that’s what counts.
